My docs don't use Prolia because it is so hard to get off. With Reclast you can "lock in gains" and take a break after one or two doses, or so I have been told.

I will have to make a decision within the next 2 months regarding what to do about Evenity. Mainly, I would like to know how soon after the 12th shots one has to get either the Prolia shot or the Reclast infusion. No one has given me concrete information about that. I surely don't want to lose any gains from the Evenity.
Right now I am leaning towards the Reclast infusion for a year or two, because of the problems with Prolia seemingly to be a 'forever' option. At 76 yr that seems rather scary.
Any feedback for how soon after Evenity is over, one has to lock in those gains???

Very interesting...I started with Tymlos for 15 wonderful months, no side effects and great increase in bone density, next I took 2 Prolia injections, no side effects from the injection but later I started feeling more aches and burning feelings in my hips and knees areas. Went to Reclast, as was told to take Tylenol the before, the day of and the day after. Day four my injection arm hurt for 2 weeks, couldn't bend my arm, on day 5 I woke up with pain and swelling in the bottom of my feet, I couldn't walk... Got Plantar fasciitis,2 months later I'm still in therapy. I hear some people that are small and weight around 104lbs had good doctors suggested 45 minutes infusion drips instead of 15 minutes that may help with side effects. Before consideing a FOREVER Prolia againI may consider taking Reclast again if I get some advice From some of you. Thank You
